The 29-year-old, who is currently recovering from a broken leg, revealed he was especially stunned by the Gunners decision to sell Cameroonian midfielder Song, and sympathised with fans’ frustrations.

‘We expected Robin [van Persie] to leave, but not Alex Song . He’s 24 and had three years left on his contract, it was a surprise. I still do not understand,’ he said.

‘This is a huge loss for the club. They were the top two players from last season – you ask a lot of questions. I understand that the fans are upset.

‘This is not alarming, but annoying. At Arsenal, you return from vacation, you’re preparing, you see two players leave the club … It’s like that since I’m at the club. I’m used to it.’

Sagna, who has been at Arsenal since 2007 after joining from Auxerre, only has one year to run on his current deal and revealed no new contract talks have taken place with the club.

He also told French newspaper L’Equipe, he believes former team-mates Samir Nasri and Gael Clichy were right to leave the club and join Manchester City last year.’Yes [they were],’ said Sagna. ‘I’m the only starting player left from 2007. In May, I watched City’s parade on TV. I saw Samir and Gael lift the trophy. I want that.

‘For now, I just want to play again and again good with Arsenal. After that, we’ll see … Everyone has their destiny.’
